A second man has been arrested on suspicion of murder in connection with the shooting of 22-year-old Hashim Ali in Hayes.

A 36-year-old man was arrested in Birmingham on Tuesday (November 6) and at the time of writing remained in custody in a north London police station.

One man has already been charged in connection with the killing. Juskiran Sidhu, 27, of Hayes, appeared at Uxbridge Magistrates' Court charged with murder on Thursday (November 1) and was remanded in custody.

He will next appear at the Old Bailey on January 21, 2019.

Moments later he was being rushed towards Hillingdon Hospital by the driver of the black Mercedes, which eventually struck some cars and pedestrians in West Drayton Road.

The crash occurred just a few minutes after when police believe Mr Ali was shot, and police found Hashim suffering from a gunshot wound in the vehicle. He died at the scene despite the efforts of paramedics.
